SIFTER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. S, 1910.

Application filed February 11, 1908. Serial No. 415,361.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, OLLA GALLAWAY Bocos, a citizen of thel United States, residing at Shawnee, in the county of Pottawatomie and State of Oklahoma, have invented a new and uset'ul Sitter, of which the following is a speciication.

My invention relates to sitters designed for use in sitting flour or the like, to separate foreign mattei' therefrom, and it consists in the construction and arrangement ot parts, as will be hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claim.

In the accompanying drawing Figure l is a perspective view of my flour sitter; and Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional View of the saine.

Referring to the drawings the numeral l designates a single cylindrical section with open ends which are closed by detachable covers 2 and A screw 4, is secured centrally to said section so as to torni separately oppositely disposed compartments 5 and G ot equal sizes between said covers and said screen, said sitter being` reversible to permit of the contents of one compartment being sit'ted into the other.

In using the device the cover 0n one compartment is removed, with the cover on the other end fixed thereon, the flour is then put in the open compartment and closed by the cover. The utensil is then shaken until the flour is shaken from the compartment in which it is held to the other compartment. rEhe utensil is then reversed and shaken until the tlour is sitted from one compartment to the other. The reversing of the utensil and shaking ot the same is repeated until the flour has been sifted a sufficient number of times to properly prepare it ,t'or use to which it is intended.

Having thus described my invention what I claim is:

rihe herein described struct-ure for sifting flour and the like comprising a single Cylindrical section with open ends, detachable covers for closing said ends, a screen secured centrally to said section so as to form separated oppositely disposed compartments of equal size between said covers and said Screen, said sitter being reversible to permit of the contents of one compartment being sifted into the other, or vice versa, substantiallv as described.
